Like, could you make a smaller version of a 1911 that fires 22lr instead of .45 by just scaling all the parts to the 22lr?

    I’m mostly thinking appearance and function, I recognize that rim fire 22lr is absolutely not going to work in a center fire without some sort of conversion.

      There is a whole youtube rabbit hole you can go down showing videos of miniature versions of larger (larger caliber) guns. The smallest I saw was “replica” Civil War Navy revolver that the whole gun was about 6cm long. It was a functional gun that had a powder charge with a projectile.

      If you’re only after appearance and function then there are plenty of 1911 .22lr or just .22 out there. They look almost exactly like a 1911, yet only fire 22
